Then add the ginger, garlic, jalapeno, fenugreek, cumin, cumin powder, coriander powder, turmeric powder and chili powder.

Slowly add about 1/4 cup of the water since the spices will pop and try to stick to the bottom.

Cook and stir for approx 2-3 minutes.

Then add the chopped tomato, stir and cook till it softens.

(Tomato is added last because if you add it before it will kill the flavor of ginger/garlic in my experience).

8
Add your choice of ground meat and potatoes with 1/4 cup more of the water, stir really well, cover and cook on medium for 15 minutes (add more water if you need to so it doesn't stick to the bottom).

9
Add the spinach, tomato paste, salt and pepper to taste.

Stir well again till it coats the entire mixture.

Add the remaining water, cover and cook for another 5 minutes till the spinach releases any water and wilts down to a dark green.

When done, turn up the heat to high and dry out any water in the pot.
